To give love & to be love.
To give love is a beautiful experience. It means to open your heart to someone or something and to allow your love to flow like a river. You are sharing the purest part of yourself, the essence of who and what you really are underneath all of the other layers. I believe that pure, unconditional love is the essence of the universe and our reality itself.
To a degree though, giving love feels safe and is also restrictive. You are able to control it, withhold it when you feel threatened or hurt in some way and direct it to exactly what you want to give love to. People can be totally open and loving to something and then turn it off towards something else in a single moment. So the analogy of it “flowing like a river” isn’t entirely correct. It is very difficult to stop a river from flowing and even when we obstruct a river, it simply tends to flow through a different path. So maybe we should look at it like a tap. You can increase the flow of water from a tap, turn it on completely or let it drip out. The choice is up to you.
Allowing yourself to be love is a totally different experience. Forget your love flowing like a river, because you become a sea of love. Everything and everyone that comes near you is bathed in this enlightening, freeing and fulfilling vibration of energy. You allow yourself to be the purest version of yourself, the very essence of who and what you really are.
The journey to being love can be a frightening experience. We have to decide that it is ok to be vulnerable by allowing our heart to be totally open to everything. There is no restriction, there is no control. We are shining our light out to the universe unconditionally. Fears of being hurt, rejected, feeling overwhelmed with emotion and more may arise, but these are only there because of the illusion of separation and remnants of the programming that we have accumulated along our journey to this point. We begin to understand that there is nothing to fear because we are enough. There is no lack and there is no loss… we are love!
When you are able to be love, you are perfectly at peace. Life flows effortlessly and magically from one beautiful experience to another. Your outlook and perspective of each moment is filled with acceptance and a deep inner strength. You can really see the light in everything and you understand that everything has its place. The choices and decisions you make are out of love and because of this, they are always for the highest good.
